Hired by default.
So I was hired by this kick ass marketing guru named Jaime. She's smart and driven. She's only 25 years old and has clients banging down her door for her services. Let's just say she's one successful woman. She chose me based on our interactions via phone/email to assist her in the marketing of this brand new revoluntionary site called BlogTalkRadio.com
It's a pretty sweet job actually. I get paid to sit here all day and socialize on networks like Myspace, Bebo, Bolt, Facebook etc. Although it's not your average job, it's certainly still difficult. I must track every message I send, all the tagging I do and more. It's also hard to get people to look at a new site, since they are bombarded on a daily basis with people trying to sell them some sort of idea, product or new website. But thing is - this website is WORTH it. I've never seen anything like it. I mean, we all know what a podcast is. This is different. It's like an actual radio talk show from the comfort of your own home. Also, you can have listeners actually call in and discuss topics with you. That's something podcasts simply cannot do. Wow. Each day they come up with something new. Really. And I'm proud to be a part of an idea that I know is going to take off.
I actually created my own show for the hell of it too. It will be on - Tuesday 9PM EST. It's called Koffee Talk With Kate. Ha. We'll talk about various subjects. I'm going to actually make a mini outline of what we will discuss. Not sure how long it will go on. I guess that will depend on me, and anybody who decides to tune in. Overall, I'm just imagining how large sites can benefit from such a website. I mean, people can talk talk talk. But what about the large business websites? Forbes.com? WebMD.com? Oh man, it could be lucrative. Especially since this site shares 50% of it's revenue with the host of the show. (NOT SHABBY)
So yeah, even though one day I want to be a TV Producer, the next day a publicist, the next day a business woman. I know all in all I want to be SUCCESSFUL & HAPPY. Bottom line. No matter what I'm doing. Those are the only 2 things I ask for. I will be satisfied! I think I actually could be happy with marketing. It was actually my initial major coming into St. John's but I changed it due to the numerous math classes that had to be taken in order to obtain the degree. I loathe math, so - that was a no go.
I'm still waiting on another job here in Mass with the Muscular Dystrophy association. We'll see if I get it! *Crossing Fingers* It'll only be a temp job before I go back to school, but it pays well and it satisfying to me since I would be working for a good cause as well.
Well, back to the drawing board --- if anyone knows of any popular or interesting blogs or forums. Send them over to me! I need as many as I can get.
